A Neat Game,

The police are at present engaged in
working up cases against several
"toughs" who have been engaged in
carrying on a system of highway rob-
berry and pocket picking combined. The
crowd travels together, and when man
under the influence of liquor, who is
known to have money in his pocket. is
met, one of the men rushes up to him
and demands payment of THAT little
bill" The rest of the gang, who figure
as disinteresied bystanders. rush up and
crowd closely around the victim, whose
pockets are picked during the melee.

NAST'S LECTURE.
He Gets In Some Local Hits That
Count.

TIL: Mast delivered very interest
ing lecture last evening at the Henne-
pin theater. He read number of eX-
tracts from different papers and then
drew pictures illustrating their mean
ing. He then drew pictures of different
types of newspaper reporters, and gave
examples of the different Stylee of re-
ports each particular class would make.
He alluded to local newspaper man as
being so hungry for nOtoriety that he
inSulted people for the purpose
of advertising himself. He said: Il
have been miSrepreSented i'll his paper,
probably for the purpose CT having me
draw his picture and thereby advertise
him, but have been requested by the
management of this house not to do it,
although l feel very much like Obliging
him." The audience seemed very anX-
iOuS TO have the picture drawn, and
after continuous clapping for several
minutes, interSpersed with cries of
"draw it." he proceeded and drew a
picture of a person who looked very
much like a certain party connected
with the Tribune. and when he repre-
Sented the person as carrying placard
Oh which was printed Il insulted the
leading lady of the land" the audience
seemed to understand who was repre-
scented as well as though his name was

Cired feet above the plain, says Mexl-
can letter to the Nashville American.
In this land of mountains nearly every
city has its Calvary or Holy Hill: but,
next to GuadalOup, near the City OF
Mexico, this Ameca-Meca is most prOmi-
nent in the religious history of Mexico.
The famous Fray Martin Valencia, one
of the cOuntry's "twelve apostles"
once lived in cave in the heart of the
Monte. The Indians, far and near,
greatly loved this good father, and
every year immense crowds made
pilgrimage to his rocky sanctuary. 1t
is related that the piOus Fray tanned the
widest animals of the adjacent heights
woods, so that they all came at his bid
ding, and even lived with him i'll the
cavern. The birds, too, knew the gen.
tie father, and gathered in great num-
bers to sing their sweetest songs at the
entrance to his gloomy abode. He died
at last in village forty miles away,
whittier he had gone on an GRAND of
mercy; but the Indians brought his
body in solemn procession to the sacred
mountain and buried it in his cavern
home, which has now become the
camarilla of a shrine.
Within this dim little chamber is
fearfully realistic image of the dead
Christ, which, so says tradition, was
placed there by Fray Martin himself as
early as 1927. Another legion asserts
that burrO (Mexican donkey. carrying
images to the cathedral at Pueblo, broke
away from his master and found his
way to this cave, where he patiently
waited for some days with the dead
Christ upon his back. till Father Martin
came and uEloaded him; and so the good
Fray believed that the mule was divinely
sent to deposit the image i'll this par
ticular shrine.
Like others near to natures heart,
whose uncultivated minds are like falloW
fields, these simple people present ex-
cellent soil for the growth of Superstl-
tons. A tiny seed of it, once sown in
their fertile imaginatiOns, speedily at
tains such sturdy growth that nothing
can uprOot it. Doubtless such was the
case with the denizenS of Nazareth,
-Judea and Galilee some eighteen CEN
turtles and half ago.
The dead Christ above referred to is
certainly a marvellous work, being the
lightest life-siZe image in the world. for,
though large as man, it weighs
scarcely two pounds. 1t is believed to
have been made of the pith of corn
stalks, prepared and cemented by some
sort of gum impervio US to the air, but
by whom it was made or by what myS-
FERROUS process no human being knows.

The Hog-Killing Season.

The Southern CuLtivdtor says that hog
killing is the work on farms that is done
this month Forehanded farmers probably
have already killed portion of their pork,
but there should be none left to feed through
the holidays. Every pork hog that can be
made to net over 100 pounds of pork before
Christmas should be sacrificed to the de-
mands of the smoker ouse. The chances are
altogether in favor of good keeping, sound,
sweet bacon, if the meat be sailed down
this month, rather than wait until January.
There will be more time for properly smok-
ing and drying the joints before the time of
the appearance of the fly. Besides this, the
pork that is made fat and killed in Novem-
Der and December will be decidedly cheaper
than if compelled to feed heavily through
another month of cold and disagreeable
weather. An ear of corn or peck of meal
fed to hog in October or November will
make twice as much pork as the same guam
tity fed in an open pen during the cold,
rainy December or January weather.
The art of butchering hogs is but little
understood by the average negro. 1t would
shame the most expert ''scalder," or "open-
err" or Gutter" to see how the work is done
in an extensive ork-packing establishment
such as Armour's, in Chicago. About scald-
ing: By whatever method the water be
heated, it should not be cooler than 1907 nor
hotter than 100 Fahrenheit when carcass
is dipped into it, One hundred and sixty is
about the proper temperature to make all
the hair come" easily-without risk of
setting" any portion. This may be deter
mined by the use of an ordinary thermom-
eter, of which every farmer should have
two or three. A little strong ashes added
to the water will cause the scurf to slip
more easily, and pint of common tar will
greatly facilitate the process.

indebtedness of Farmers

Mr. John M. Stahl, in communication
to the Southern CuLtiUator, respecting the
Indebtedness of farmers of this country.
says: The total of farmers Indebtedness is
put at g., 600, 100000. This is truly a large
amount. We cannot comprehend it. 1t is
more than the national debt. But the value
of our farm products every year is $4,OO0,-
100000 That is, every year we produce
twice our total indebtedness. Such being
the case, our condition is not desperate by
long odds. Why, if we were to be very
saving for only one year-cut down our
living expenses little and save fully all
we produced-the gain would pay all we
owe The farmers of this country do a big
business; they own much property; COM
pared with their business and property their
Indebtedness is small. Nevertheless, we are
in debt too often and too muoh Some go
in debt for fertilizers, some for land, some
for luxuries of living. Onr indebtedness
ought to be much less than 81. 900, O0O. 900.
We ought to be creditors; yet there are
twenty farmers belonging to the debtor
class to every farmer belonging to the cred
itor class. Debt is very bad thing Few
things should make a man more sad than to
put mortgage upon his home. Farmers
are often scolded for their readiness to put
their signature to papers, and we must con-
fess that we are too ready to put our names
to papers that are the evidence of debt.

Care of LAMPS.

writer in the New Orleans Picau,t,,e
says that cleaning lamps is very apt to be
put off until late in the day. This should
not be the case. In many households the
dusk of early evening reminds the hurrying
housewife that her lamps are still neglected
and she then fills them hastily and is obliged
to light one at once This is wrong, because
the vapor of the oil about freshly
lamp is liable to explosion. A lamp should
be filled at least two-thirds its depth, and
one which has but spoonful or two of oil
in it should never be lighted, as the empty
OIL space is filled with explosive vapor.
Lamps filled to overflowing are very I'M
cleanly, soiling everything brought in con-
tact with them; and to most persons the
odor of kerosene is extremely unpleasant.
A lampwick should fit exactly into space
and should be kept clean When it becomes
black from the sediment in the lamp it must
be thrown away, or washed and dried before
using again. When nearly burned away
wick may be heightened by fold of canton
flannel which, reaching to the bottom of the
lamp, will feed the wick as the oil burns out.
1t is not best to put strips of red flannel or
yarn into lamp as the inside should be
colorless, that any impurities may be seen.
If such appear wash the wick, empty and
cleanse the oil reservoir
A burner sometimes becomes so clogged
that it does not allow perfect combustion of
the oil. In such a case remove it from the
lamp. place in cold water in which a sliced
potato has been added and boil an hour or
two; rub with a dry cloth, when it will be
entirely clean and bright as new. To keep
the chimneys shining and clear nothing is
better than daily washing them in soap and
water and rubbing them clear with soft
cloth free from lint; old print is good for
this purpose. A small sponge attached to a
stick is convenient for washing lamp CHM
neys.
Hanging lamps are best to use where
there are small children to endanger upset.
ting. Common table lamps and small metal
hand lamps on broad saucer-lke base are
the most safe to carry about, as it is nearly
impossible to overturn or break one.

Mites in Poultry House.

Mr.. G. S. Chappell, of Jenkinsville, S. c.,
sends to the Southern CuLttudtor the fol-
lowing plan for keeping mites out of poultry
houses: Have the roosting poles isolated
from the walls of the house. / set up four
posts and have them well braced, the braces
serving as ladders by which the poultry can
climb to the roost, which is on top of these
posts The posts should not be very large,
two inches square being sufficient, and about
three or four inches near the ground they
should be kept greased-axle grease will do,
with little kerosene added Have not
seen a mite for two years in my poultry
yard. / don't allow the hens to sit in the
house where they roost. To keep large lice
off the young chicks is to keep them Off the
hens while sitting Common snuff is the
best thing ever tried for that purpose.
